Bangkok: In the heart of the Bang Lamphu area lies a unique establishment, Caf© Velodome, that offers more than just a cup of coffee.
According to Thai News Agency, Caf© Velodome serves as a "starting point" for cycling enthusiasts, led by Theerames Lertsaewetpong, affectionately known as "P' Pae." His passion for both coffee and cycling inspired the creation of this caf©. Beyond its inviting atmosphere, Caf© Velodome offers a menu featuring signature drinks like the Choco Velodome Frappe, Ice Ristretto Latte, and Matcha Green Tea, alongside freshly baked goods such as croissants, brownies, and Chocolate Lava Cake. Hearty meals like spaghetti, fresh salads, and creamy egg rice are also available.
The caf© encourages visitors to embrace cycling by providing bike rentals with all necessary equipment, including helmets and tire pumps. Additionally, Caf© Velodome sells unique sports jerseys and a variety of stickers. P' Pae, who transitioned from barista and rear-rider to full-time cycling tour leader, has guided over 200 cyclists, primarily beginners, through Bangkok's hidden alleys and secret passages. Remarkably, he offers these tours without charge, driven by the joy and camaraderie shared with fellow cyclists.
Caf© Velodome stands as a beacon of community spirit, blending the love of coffee with the thrill of cycling. Open daily from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, it invites patrons to experience the joy of discovering Bangkok's wonderlands on two wheels.
